bought some 17inch rex wheels yesty from a local subaru/car enthusiast. loving how they look on the RX, this has been the cars resting place while iv been doing the longest clutch job in the history of the universe, over the next month and a half while i sit the rest of this license suspension out ill be attending to some maintenace, this includes

 

timing belt kit / water pump kit(inc. new rad hoses) 

valve cover gasket kit, spark plug seals have let go iv noticed

new spark plugs, ignition leads

JDM HID headlights

new headunit

replace cracked windscreen

going to run some subaru upper engine cleaner through when i do the oil change.

also have to send a speaker into speaker doctor in sydney since i blew it, had the lows to high and had the music WAAAAAY to loud while listening to hall of the mountain king while tearing up some twistys on the coast hahaha. 

also have coilovers and a range of white line upgrades planned come tax return time. 

anyway this is my baby as she sits to this day. 

cheers

That blue tyre wall..

I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

Looks the goods mate! Pinstriped tyres are an acquired taste, but each to their own!

And i hope to hell, you don't even think about getting under the car set up like that! Get it forward a bit more on your slab and stick some chocks under those back wheels.

lol i know its dodgy as fork but apart from having the jack stands forward abit more, the gearbox came out of the car whilst it was like that, building a more suitable area down the back of the yard with a shed and everything for future projects. 

coloured tyre walls a big in this little town, i quite like it to be honest lol

That is a risky little setup i'd say. Did you hear about the 50something car enthusiast who was crushed under his car last week? If it can happen to him, a garage pro, it could happen to you... aint worth it mate, should take some extra precautions...

 

Car is looking nice, would love to see a shot with it on the ground, looking normal.
